    Can you recommend a shower stall?

    See...that's what I'm talkin' about. The devil's in the details, and this is the kind of information I'm looking for. Makes perfect sense now that you mention it. Thanks, Bud.

    Can you recommend a shower stall?

    Thanks, Bud. I'm dealing with someone who's convinced the concrete is unnecessary, but I'm not so sure, hence the question. I presume you'd install the plumbing, build the frame and pour the concrete, then set the shower in place before the concrete sets so it will take the form of the shower...
